Forgot about this post didn't get back to Mike's response (sorry).Thanks for your id Dan.Tabfish got this at my workplace scout moor quarry near Rochdale. Don't find much but any thing which looks out of the ordinary I always have a look. Thanks again..

where there is a quarry. Unfortunately, that seems to be Fletcher Bank Quarry.

But now I have found the wind farm and reservoir, I think I have your quarry (just to the west of the wind farm and NNE of Fletcher Bank Quarry).

The quarry is almost completely in the Carboniferous 'Rough Rock' sandstone, ~313m yrs old.

To quote from the BGS:

"These rocks were formed from rivers depositing mainly sand and gravel detrital material in channels to form river terrace deposits, with fine silt and clay from overbank floods forming floodplain alluvium, and some bogs depositing peat; includes estuarine and coastal plain deposits mapped as alluvium."

The Rough Rock 'is the most extensive of all of the sandstones of the Millstone Grit Group'

Always keep an eye out Tabfish and will post if I find anything. I posted some pictures recently from an abandoned quarry called birtle so it does really interest me I just went for a nosey round. Thanks Mike for your time and effort alot of interesting facts. Yeah the quarry is near the turbines a bleak place in winter.Thanks to everyone again for your replies..

I have a friend who works in a quarry as well, he found an ammonite over 2ft across and thought he had done well untill i pointed out a grean line on the side of the fossil that showed us he had left a complete whorle in the ground.
